Russia has actually legalized theft through offshore companies - State Duma deputy
Despite the declared policy, the Russian leadership has actually legalized the use of offshore companies by the bourgeoisie for tax evasion.
Deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, economist Mikhail Delyagin stated this on the air of Aurora radio, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“They rashly adopted a law not on complete deoffshorization, but on the fact that in housing and communal services concessions they cannot be an offshore concessionaire. Concession is feeding, translated into Russian. And the investor is a boyar.
So, the new boyars cannot take over the housing and communal services of Russian cities if they are registered offshore. Reasonable. But the Deputy Minister of Economic Development sits and says: “Of course, the law applies to direct offshore companies, but it has nothing to do with indirect offshore companies.”
Indirect offshore is when a Russian individual legal entity owns an offshore company and works with Russia through it. And this is good". That’s how it should be, “always do it this way,” the law that new boyars cannot take over housing and communal services of Russian cities and regions does not apply to this offshore,” Delyagin was indignant.
The deputy emphasized that in this way theft on an especially large scale was actually legalized in Russia.
“This is said by a sober person, not on drugs, he is dressed, his jacket is on top and his pants are on bottom, he has not mixed them up. He is the Deputy Minister of Economy, and this is the official position of the Russian government, that there is a law that you cannot work offshore in this area, but if the offshore belongs to a Russian swindler who does not pay taxes through it, everything is kosher, guys, screw it. And this is the law!” he concluded.
